Fortune 50 Financial Institution - Customer Case Study

A Fortune 50 financial institution faced the significant challenge of migrating petabytes of data to a new EMC Isilon NAS platform with minimal disruption. Their primary obstacles included managing massive network bandwidth consumption, avoiding contention during background replication, and ensuring a consistent deployment across all of their global data centers without errors in security permissions.

Data Dynamics provided the solution with its StorageX platform, which offered a single pane of glass to manage the migration. The solution enabled quality-of-service controls to minimize client impact, managed bandwidth utilization, and ensured a standardized process globally. As a result, Data Dynamics helped the institution drastically reduce the final cutover downtime to a fraction of what other solutions offered, ensuring data availability for millions of users.
